Business Development Consultant - Recruitment (Financial Services / Insurance / Finance Markets)
Location: London | Hybrid (2-3 days in office)
Salary: £45,000 - £50,000 + Outstanding Commission
If you’re a recruiter who enjoys winning business more than filling roles, this is an opportunity to step into a purely BD focused position within a well respected and hugely well established recruitment firm.
The Opportunity
You’ll be focused on developing new client relationships across:
* Insurance
* Financial Services
* Finance & Commerce
The role is heavily weighted toward client-side engagement, targeting senior stakeholders across these markets.
If you’ve built relationships with:
* CFOs
* Heads of Finance
* Senior leadership within FS or Insurance
You’ll be able to leverage that network and generate revenue quickly.
Why This Role Stands Out
* Pure business development focus - less delivery, more revenue generation
* Opportunity to transition contract recruiters into a high-value BD role
* Strong brand and established presence in financial services markets
* Clear pathway to scale your earnings through an outstanding commission structure
Who They’re Looking For
* 2+ years’ recruitment experience (360 or BD-heavy)
* Strong background in contract recruitment ideal, although perm will be considered
* Experience selling into Insurance, FS, Finance or Commerce clients highly relevant
* Proven ability to win new business and build client relationships
* Commercially driven, confident, and target-oriented
What’s on Offer
* £40k - £50k base salary + uncapped commission
* 5% matched pension (after 2 years)
* Annual weekend away
* Annual ski trip
* Hybrid working (2-3 days office)
* Healthcare
* Ride to Work scheme
* 2 paid charity days per year
* 25 days holiday + birthday off
* Sabbatical policy
* Work from anywhere policy
